Hummingbird Swing FAQ

Do hummingbirds really swing on it?

Open tab

Yes! Hummingbirds are extremely territorial. Just place within one foot of a food source, and hummingbirds will use the swing as a perching spot to keep watch over their food source.

How do I hang my swing?

Open tab

Each swing comes with either a stainless steel or copper s-type hook You can use the included hook to hang your swing from any garden pole. Be sure to read proper swing to feeder placement below. You can purchase additional s hooks from Pop’s to hang your feeders nearby.

Where should I place my swing?

Open tab

We recommend hanging your swing no more than 1 ft away from a feeder or nectar rich flowering plant, eye level with the food source and away from trees or other competing perching spots

How can I help hummingbirds discover my swing?

Open tab

Try placing your swing in an existing feeder location, then move the feeder about a foot away, eye level with the swing. This will help hummingbirds discover the swing due to their excellent recall memory! Clean your feeder regularly and provide fresh nectar every 1-2 days to ensure you are providing an area worth being territorial over. Choose a location for your swing / feeder that is well protected from the elements, with easy access to guard and retreat as needed. Above all else, give it time. It may take your hummingbirds an entire season to discover the swing, especially if introduced mid-season.

Nectarade FAQ

Does your nectar contain red dye?

Open tab

Our clear, all natural fomula contains no dyes or harmful preservatives. You do not need red dyes to attract hummingbirds to your feeder. The feeder alone combined with their inquisitive minds is enough to cause them to investigate. Dyes and other additives can be harmful to a hummingbird's diet.

How long does nectar stay fresh?

Open tab

Our Nectarade does not have an expiration date when stored in it's original packaging in a cool location, out of direct sunlight. When stored After opening, if stored in a cool dark area in its original packaging the nectar will stay fresh for weeks (or months when refrigerated). Nectar in a feeder may only stay fresh for a few days depending on how hot it is in your climate.

How often should I change my hummingbird nectar?

Open tab

In hot or humid climates you may need to change nectar every 1-2 days. As a best practice, try filling feeders half way full or so much as your hummingbirds are emptying your feeders every couple of days. This will ensure you have the freshest nectar on the block and keep them coming back for more!

Hummingbird Sanctuary FAQ

My “bully” hummingbird chases the other birds away, how can I invite more hummingbirds to my yard?

Open tab

Try adding a variety of feeders and swings placed far away enough that they are of sight from one another. This is the best way to encourage territorial hummers to get along - by giving them separate spaces to be territorial over.

What are some good nectar-rich flowering plants to attract hummingbirds?

These include perennials such as bee balms, columbines, daylilies, and lupines; biennials such as foxgloves and hollyhocks; and many annuals, including cleomes, impatiens, and petunias.at are some good nectar rich flowering plants to attract hummingbirds?
